I don't understand exactly what you are asking but the bar on the left comes from the USERCP_SHELL template.

I don't know for sure but I would try this... (edited and working)

In the USERCP_SHELL template find:

<!-- table to support left column nav -->

Below it add:

<if condition="THIS_SCRIPT != 'private'">

Then find:

</script>
<!-- / moderation popups -->
</if>
	
</td>
<td>&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>

Below it add:

</if>

That should remove it for PM's but I didn't test it.
